This year Arts Alive joined with engineers Nick Truncale and Nate Williams from Nexus Solutions, designer Valerie of Valerie Kiser Designs and me doing the painting with Michael Sorrentino. The students constructed wearable art which they programmed to be interactive with light and sound. We began by being inspired by the exhibit by Kathleen Elliot in the Everhart Museum which transformed one thing into something else. We had an intense two weeks and yesterday their work was proudly displayed for their loved ones. I'll miss them all and hope they come back next year!
Come out Sunday to gain awareness to the great things coming to our area in August! Linde in Pittston will be hosting a great gala opening with food, music and three floors of my work. Free and open to ALL~!
Sue is retiring from being the principal at Tunkhannock Area Middle School. She sold their house and it's contents to make a fresh start with a new home and new furniture in North Carolina. She commissioned me to do a silk to add some color and energy for her dining room. So a bit of NEPA goes with her and her husband for a new phase of her journey. Good luck Sue - enjoy and have FUN!!!Sue is retiring from being the principal at Tunkhannock Area Middle School.

On May 23 I received artist of the year award from the Northeastern Educational Intermediate Unit. Debbie Donowski received the teacher of the year award. The photo shows us with our award - beautiful vessels made by ceramist Skip Sensbach. On June 1 we gathered again for a breakfast to honor the seventh grade 'core' students who worked on the 'Tiger Eyes' to be hung on the outside on the Seventh Grade Academy building. As a rostered artist of Pennsylvania I am fortunate to go in to school for a month at a time to work with the art teacher and students to produce a work of art that enhances the morale of all.
